Sounds good Dan. Should be lots of fun.

 

[Brian Johns]

This camp will definitely be fun what with Chuck Gauss and Ken Smith coming to town to teach. Not to mention the convenience factor as the camp is just around the corner from where I live. Come on down and train, if you are in the Midwest area !

Take care,

I spoke to Dr. Gyi, of Burmese Bando, and he will be at the Ohio Modern Arnis Camp. Things are shaping up nicely. Attend if you can. All are welcome.

Dan,

Will Dr. Gyi be a guest or a guest instructor? either way thank you for sharing.

Dr. Gyi will be a guest instructor. He will teach a session as a tribut to Remy A. Presas. Thanks for asking.

After having trained in bando for 10 plus years in the 80's, I had called Dr. Gyi to ask if he would come to the Ohio Modern Arnis Camp. We had spoken on the phone a couple of times. I had also run into and had shared a flight with Dr. Gyi during the summer and we had a long conversation about, among other things, bando, modern arnis/ Remy and aikido and much history. During this flight, I had asked him again if he would like to come to the camp. We exchanged contact information and he asked me to keep in touch with him as he wanted to know how my training went in Florida. I had called him when I returned and we had a great conversation about things like perceptual accuity in martial arts and the 9 perceptions. He asked for the dates of the camp.
I got a call from Tim H. about a week ago and he said that Dr. Gyi had called looking for my phone number. I said it was ok to give it to Dr. Gyi. In the meantime I had e-mailed and called and left a message for Dr. Gyi. He did return the call and plans were made. Thanks Tim for checking first before giving out my phone number.

There has been a small change to the Ohio Modern Arnis Camp. Master Chuck Gauss will not be there due to a scheduling conflict. HOWEVER, the Chairman of the Board of Directors for the IMAF, DR. RANDI SHEA will take Chucks place at the camp. All else remians the same.
